My Thoughts

I love that this book has an easy and simple way of understanding what the author is conveying. The chapters are informative in that it is easy to know when it is talking about something else. For example, in the chapter of Developing Your Growth Mindset, the author has broken it down into paragraphs of each technique and the technique is in bold. I love this because it is easy to read.

I would recommend this book to those who love to read self-help books, those who want help solving their problems, those who are interested in personal transformation and those who just love to read about it.
